hi lennart,
what do you mean, you have some sourcecode where this regex occurs,
and you want to find the matching lines? then you'd have to use sth
like this:
\^(\?:M|C)
if you want to match lines that begin with M or C, then it'd have to
be:
^\(?:M\|C\)
HTH, regards,
anselm

Yes, thanks, that helped. I will try to remember now that it is just a
single \ for escaping when prompted for a pattern...

What do I enter in occur (M-x occur) to search for the pattern in the
subject line? (I have omitted all escaping there.)
